Hello from Minnesota!

Hi everyone!

This site is amazing! Just started with vaping this past Monday. I've been smoking cigs for 37 years, and haven't had a single one since starting this!

Am just using a 650mah ego with a throwaway cheap clearomizer that a local B&M sold me. I'm really enjoying this but am quickly seeing that the disposable clearomizers are going to cost a lot, and that I'm going to want a longer lasting battery.

Looking forward to contributing as I learn from you all!

37 YEARS!? Wow! I only smoked for 5 years and it took me a good 2 weeks to finally quit smoking while vaping.
You're awesome! Much more strength than I had! Keep going, it's only gonna get easier! (and more fun, if I may say)
Welcome!

Thanks Classwife and roosterado!

Well, you get to a point where you really want to quit. That's critical. I've tried many times over the years, but didn't "want to" bad enough. Now I do.

Welcome, and congratulations!
Why are your clearomizers considered disposable? I may be wrong, but I thought that some cartomizers are disposable but that most/all clearos are refillable and re-coilable.

These are refillable, but can't be opened to replace the coil.

Welcome to the forum and the wonderful world of vaping. I started with the simple ego starter kit and truly hate the clearomizer that it came with so I know what you mean there. I will be getting a new tank this weekend that is not the disposable type. I am new to this but have seen good reviews on the pro tank mini and the aero tank mini. I have the 900 mah battery which lasts me all day but eventually will get a couple of bigger ones as you will probably want to as well. The experts will chime in here soon enough on what they think would be best Congratulations to you and good luck!

Thanks everyone. Cool to see all the Minnesota folks!

I've decided I need an MVP2. I cover a multi-state territory in my sales position and I need something I can put in my shirt pocket, and use while driving without worrying about recharging. But now I'm trying to determine what to put on top. I'm wondering if I should get something with a larger capacity for long drives, or just accept that I need to refill more often. Decisions, Decisions.

The MVP2 that I got last week from 101vapes came with an iclear30 atty. Not the best out there, but not a bad atty either. Worth a tryout imo.
I have a handful of the aspire glass-tank BDC's that I carry when I know I'll be away from my juice stock for a while. Their 8 bucks each or so, and they work great on the MVP. It's also nice to have a few different flavors 'right there' at my fingertips for whatever mood I'm in at the moment.
